Finished it in 2 days, because it was SO great to read about Juliette and Warner again...

and KENJI <3 of course. Always makes me laugh out loud. He's just the best. And he deserves whatever his heart desires :)

The new characters introduced in Restore Me are unique and entertaining. The new plot is absolutely not what I was expecting -- which is awesome. I loved Juliette's growth in this as well: she goes from strong to insane to badass... and I'll stop there in case I mention any spoiler.

But then, then ending...

What. The. Freaking. Hell. was that??

Things move so fast towards the end that there's no way I could put the book down. And as I was reading, I could feel that something huge was going to happen. And I kept thinking that everyone should get ready instead of having all the drama.

And, of course, what happened was even worse than I'd expected.

And there's so much left untold.

So many character's lives hanging... PLUS that last scene with the pictures.

Like what the actual hell??

Then I remember that I just bought the hardcover because the paperback version isn't out yet -- which means that the next book is SO FAR AWAY! There's not even a cover for it yet.

Although very different from the movie, the book had its own lovely personality and touching moments, and it showed a different, more vulnerable side of little Sara Crewe, which made me love her even more!...more

And I've rolled my eyes at one of my favourite fictional characters. Because, let's face it, Harriet still has a lot to learn.

But mostly, this book was amazing. It was everything it needed to be to complete the full circle.

Bold, scary, and probably pretty accurate, Lord of the Flies is mind blowing.I found this a the end of the book (spoiler alert): The theme of LORD OFBold, scary, and probably pretty accurate, Lord of the Flies is mind blowing.I found this a the end of the book (spoiler alert): The theme of LORD OF THE FLIES is described by Golding as follow (in the same publicity questionnaire): "The theme is an attempt to trace the defects of society back to the defects of human nature. The moral is that the shape of a society must depend on the ethical nature of the individual and not on any political system however apparently logical or respectable. The whole book is symbolic in nature except the rescue in the end where adult life appears, dignified and capable, but in reality enmeshed in the same evil as the symbolic life of the children on the island. The officer, having interrupted a man-hunt, prepares to take children off the island in a cruiser which will presently be hunting its enemy in the same implacable way. And who will rescue the adult and his cruiser?"...more

One of the best books I've read in my life. So much happened and even more is about to go down. Now my problem is this: if I read the fourth book now,One of the best books I've read in my life. So much happened and even more is about to go down. Now my problem is this: if I read the fourth book now, I'll have to wait for the fifth for God knows how long. And the ending might be even worst than this one. But then I don't feel like reading anything other than the next installment. So. What should I doooooo?...more

I first thought I'd give this book 3 stars, but then everything unfolded and that was enough to change my mind.Yes, the beginning is slow and yes the story doesn't have as much action and witty dialogues as Mead's other books. BUT it has something else entirely. It's hard to describe. It's as though her writing gives you hope. I found myself smiling while reading the second half of the book and sometimes I didn't even know why.All in all, if you feel like reading a fast-paced, action-pact story with a badass character like Rose Hathaway, turn around and buy something like Thrown of Glass by Sarah J. Mass. If, however, you love Mead's writing and you feel confident in your ability to see beauty and hope in its most subtle way, then go on and read this and you won't be disappointed. Because there Is action. There is a love story. And the protagonist is badass in her own way. You just have to be patient and keep reading to see it :)...more
